Luncheon Case Discussion
Christian Ownership Maximalism and Business Ownership as a Vocation.
Using a “beefy” article from First Things and related reference materials from the Compendium Social Doctrine of the Church, we will explore the notion of business ownership and exit strategies through the lens of the Church’s social teaching which serves as a practical framework to not only avoid the class warfare of socialism and anti-capitalism but moreover to see business ownership with a vocational purpose. The article and reference materials are non-trivial and merit a thoughtful pre-read before our case discussion luncheon.
905 Main St, Houston, Texas 77002 (Downtown Houston)

Reception
Dr. Sinda Vanderpool, President of the University of St. Thomas.
Forming the whole person of Houston’s future leaders.
Please join the BEF and our reception sponsor, David Finan and EIV Capital, as we welcome back to Houston the new president of the University of St. Thomas, Dr. Sinda Vanderpool. Dr. Vanderpool will speak to us on UST’s mission to form the entire person of their students, who represent the next generation of leaders for Houston, as well as her personal leadership approach to renewing the vitality of this very important institution of higher learning in our community.
